About NexGenix: NexGenix Pharmaceuticals Holdings, Inc. is a privately-held biotechnology company based in New York City. The Company's portfolio consists of a series of Hsp90 inhibitors, a novel target therapy for oncology and neurodegenerative disorders, which has attracted an enormous amount of development interest in the past several years. The Company's proprietary Hsp90 screening platform has already generated over 300 potential compounds. From this group, three lead drug candidates have been identified on the basis of superior efficacy, safety, and the ability to cross the blood brain barrier. The product profiles lend themselves to address diseases such as glioblastoma (or "glioma", commonly known as malignant brain tumor) and other cancers, as well as neurodegenerative disorders including the motor neuron disease ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) and Parkinson's disease. Each of these indications represents a world-wide market of at least $1B/year. In addition, the Company has a clinical stage intralesional treatment for dermal neurofibromas, the most common lesion in Neurofibromatosis Type 1, and a research stage program in inhibitors of p21-activated kinase for indications including Neurofibromatosis Type 2, and Autism Spectrum Disorders.
